duncan said:*Can someone please explain what a half-wheel uni looks like? I have
been reading some old posts about .5, 1.5, 2.5, even 0 wheelers, but I
don't know what these are. Any pictures out there?
Thanks *
Jack Halpern made those unicycles. See 'this thread'
(http://tinyurl.com/v25x) for a little more info and a picture of the
1.5 wheeler.
The .5 wheeler is a wheel shaped like a capital "D". Basically, half a
wheel. The challenge is riding through that big flat spot in the
wheel.
The 1.5 is a two wheel stack with the top wheel the "D" shaped wheel.
It would be a coaster unicycle for half a revolution.
The 2.5 wheeler is a three stack with the top wheel being the "D" shaped
half-a-wheel.
The 0 wheeler is a standard unicycle with no spokes and no rim. Just
the cranks attached to the hub. It's more of a walking machine than a
unicycle. Kathump, kathump, kathump, as you go stomping around walking
on the pedals.
